Innislake Dairy Farm is a 2nd generation family run dairy farm located west of Olds. We have a total count of 165 animals which 60 are milking. The milking cows now have the option of going out into the pasture to graze between milking’s. Its amazing how they know when its time to head back to the barn but of course there is a few stragglers to go and get home. All of the heifers and dry cows are out on grass and loving every minute of it except maybe one who ended up getting a few quills. The average milk from a cow in our heard is 40 kilos with a 4% fat and 3.3% protein count. The milking’s start at 5:30 am and 5:00 pm. The farm is spread across 500 acres of land.
